Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2011 in the subject Business economics - Marketing, Corporate Communication, CRM, Market Research, Social Media, grade: 1.0, Thames Valley University, London, language: English, abstract: This dissertation is a study in the area of e-commerce. The aim of this study was to examine the adoption of online shopping and online shopping for clothing in particular and factors influencing the intention to purchase clothing online. A quantitative research method was used and a questionnaire designed on the website www.surveymonkey.com and then distributed by sending out the link leading to the survey via facebook and emails. 94 useful questionnaires were gathered from female and male UK students. SPSS 17 was used to analyse the collected data by conducting chi-square tests and Spearman's rho correlation tests to examine the relation between different variables. The constructs of the technology acceptance model (TAM) were used as a framework and basis for this research and were extended by further constructs. Therefore, the impact of perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, prior online shopping experience, perceived risk and product involvement on the intention to purchase clothing online was analysed. Perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use and prior online shopping experience had positive effects on the intention to purchase clothing online. Perceived risk had a negative effect on the intention to purchase clothing online. These findings supported the hypotheses. Other than hypothesised, clothing product involvement did not have a significant positive effect on the intention to purchase clothing online.

These technologies are also being harnessed by businesses for various purposes including distribution and selling of goods, retailing of consumer services, customer relationship management, and influencing consumer behaviour by employing digital marketing practices. This book considers this, as it examines the practice and research related to digital and social media marketing.

Download or read book Information Asymmetry in Online Advertising written by Jan W. Wiktor and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-30 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advertising is a company’s major form of communication with the market; it is a component of the IMC system, having a special impact on the addressee, and is a form of persuasive communication affecting consumer behaviour. Advertising may reflect information asymmetry between an advertiser and recipients. This book presents an assessment of the forms and range of consumer behaviour manipulation through information asymmetry in online advertising and explores the possible causes, forms, and effects. The work offers a new approach to the role of advertising in the digital world, especially its forms and impact strategies. The theoretical framework presented is based on issues related to online advertising, information asymmetry, and social manipulation. The book describes the ways in which these areas can be explored, and it presents the results of empirical studies. Empirical research allows for identifying companies’ moral hazard strategies and their consequences – e-consumers’ adverse selection. The research provides an empirical answer to the question: to what extent is advertising a transparent form of communication, and to what extent does it represent the world of manipulation? Based on an interdisciplinary theoretical approach, empirical studies conducted by the authors, and theoretical and managerial implication, the book encourages its readers to find their own answers. Given the interdisciplinary nature of this work, it will be of interest to scholars and researchers within the fields of marketing, media and communication, economics, psychology, sociology, and ethics.

Download or read book The Influence Mechanism of Internet Word of Mouth on Consumer Behavior A Contrastive Study between Japan and China on Tablet Marketing written by ZHANG Haibin and published by Scientific Research Publishing, Inc. USA. This book was released on 2018-11-01 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will address the gaps of current studies: (1) Existing study conclusions around eWOM and consumer behaviors are not perfect. At present, many studies emphasize the positive effect of eWOM on consumer behaviors, but there are still many different views around the influencing mechanism; there is, in particular, a lack of study on the influencing mechanisms in different cultures; partly the result of different product types and customer groups. This study uses personal consumer electronics as its subject: specifically, the tablet computer. In this way, the study will enable comparability in the assessment of eWOM in different countries and the potential differences in the customers in the two countries. In addition, this study also discusses the overall trend of WOM communication among customers and compares its impact on both countries. (2) Insufficient research on the impact of Internet multi-media WOM marketing. This study believes that the content of online reviews is not the only standard that influences customers' choices. The manner and methods of information delivery and presentation also shape customers’ opinions. This study explores the means of giving an opinion about a personal electronic product and their diversity and influence on different customers in a diversified information context. (3) Insufficient research on consumer trust. Albeit key to successful marketing, consumer trust has not been sufficiently studied for its role in online marketing. Consumer trust consists of different dimensions. Some recognition at various sub-levels of a product helps establish a consumer’s trust in the product’s online reputation. This study analyzes the relationship between eWOM marketing and consumer trust at each sub-level. It further explores the two dimensions of trust, namely, competence-based trust and integrity-based trust, and their effects on purchase intention and WOM communication.

Download or read book Factors with Strongest Contribution to Explaining Consumers Search Intention as a Dependent Variable written by Ibrahim Haji and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2014-09-10 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2013 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, grade: B, The University of Chicago, language: English, abstract: The findings of the study are well consistent with close-cut studies of other companies offering hospitality services online. According to Harcar and Yucelt (2012), perceived convenience ranked highest in explaining the consumers’ search intention as a dependent variable and as if that is not enough, the same research findings did hold ground for another rather distanced online travel company as can be justified by the fact that perceived convenience by the consumer made the highest contribution in affecting consumers’ search intention while their were searching for their services (Peng et al, 2013). These findings were again consistent with of another scholar who in his studies, discovered that perceived convenience had much contribution to make on the customers’ search intention (Conyette, 2012). On the other hand, the attitude of the consumer as far as his/her search intention is concerned also gave relatively considerable contribution. The findings of the study place the attitude of the consumer as the second strongest factor likely to affect the search intention of consumers and according to another research, the attitude of the consumer played a great role in affecting the consumer in his/her search intention as far as online travel is concerned (Khandelwal et al, 2012). It is explained that the consumer’s attitude has a great effect on the consequential bearing of his search with regards to making reservations online of buying hospitality services online. This study finding is consistent with other studies and much more matches the expectations of stakeholders in this industry who without prior knowledge of customers’ preferences and intentions, can not really compete in the industry (Park et al). Knowing the attitude of the consumer and understanding that this attitude would affect his/her search intentions is key to making any online travel business successes (Jha, 2014). Intensive research placed subjective norm on the lower end of affecting consumers’ search intention when compared with perceived convenience and consumers’ attitude all through the study. [...]

Download or read book Online Impulse Buying and Cognitive Dissonance written by Giovanni Mattia and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-02-12 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consumers’ beliefs and attitudes towards online sales significantly influence buying behavior on the internet. However, the impact of these thoughts and beliefs on the decision to make an online purchase is not direct. It can be moderated by the emotions experienced while browsing an e-commerce website. Impulse buying in particular is influenced by a number of factors, for example how stimulating the e-shopping platform is, and how easy it is to click on the cart a certain product, for instance a smartphone. But what happens after an online impulse buy is made? Often the customer can regret the purchase and in the throes of anxiety, look for reasons to justify the choices made. Consumer behaviour scholars and pyschologists call this phenomenon cognitive dissonance, and certain individuals are more sensitive than others in developing this than others. This book offers a deep investigation around online impulse buying and subsequent cognitive dissonance. Specifically, the authors present a research case study of a group of millenials who are shopping for smartphones to study whether an initial positive state can reduce the onset of cognitive dissonance in consumers. Based on substantial research and a sample of 212 impulsive millennial buyers, the book provides a comprehensive, but simple and synthetic framework of impulse buying, cognitive dissonance and positive affect state, highlighting their relationships.
